1. Assume the planets and the Moon have circular orbits and that all orbital planes are coplanar. a. Using the BKE, what is the velocity (vector!!) of the Moon with respect to a Sun-centered inertial frame? Express your answer symbolically in terms of a rotating frame attached to the Earth. b. Using the BKE and your answer from part (a), what is the acceleration (vector!!) of the Moon with respect to a Sun-centered inertial frame? Express your answer symbolically in terms of a rotating frame attached to the Earth.
